Mr. Jones,
Thanks for this list! This lets me know some of the MARTINs who survived.
"These Ala Martin's paroled in NC May 1, 1865:
B., Pvt, Co C, 1st Inf.
C. John, Co I, 12th Cav.
C.W., 2d Lt, Co I, 29th Inf.
David, Pvt, Co C, 10th Confederate Cav.
Francis M., Pvt, Co F, 27th Inf.
G.L, Pvt, Co K, 19th Inf.
J., Sgt, Co E, 5th Inf.
J.A., Pvt, Co H, 20th Inf.
J.C., Pvt, Co K, 29th Inf.
Jim B., Capt, Co B, 22d Inf.
J.L., 1st Lt, Co K, 17th Inf.
John A., Pvt, Co H, 20th Inf.
John, Pvt, Co G, 17th Inf.
John S., Pvt, Co B, 20th Inf.

Samuel, Pvt, Co C, 10th Confederate Cav.
W.W., Pvt, Co I, 8th Confederate Cav."
***************************************************
"B., Pvt, Co C, 1st Inf."
I have
57. Martin, B. , Co. C, 1 Reg’t. Alabama Infantry, Private/Private
See also: Martin, Benjamin,45 Alabama Infantry
62. Martin, Benjamin, Co. F, 45 Alabama Infantry, Private/Private
See also: Martin, B., 1 Alabama Infantry
Do you think both of these listings refer to your guy?
****************************************************
"C. John, Co I, 12th Cav."
I show only two MARTINs in the 12th Alabama Cav.
Possibly this is your John C.
98. Martin, Cornelius, Co. C, 12 Ala. Cavalry, Private/Private
****************************************************
"C.W., 2d Lt, Co I, 29th Inf."
This appears to be your guy.
102. Martin, C. W.,Co. I, 29 Alabama Infantry, 1 Sgt./2 Lt.
****************************************************
"David, Pvt, Co C, 10th Confederate Cav."
I have no listings for the 10th Confederate Cav. So, I suppose some of the
MARTINs who served in the CSA from Alabama are going to be missing
from my list as a consequence of my not having Confederate units listed.
Will add David to my list of 700+
****************************************************
"Francis M., Pvt, Co F, 27th Inf. "
I have
160. Martin, Francis M., Co. F, 27 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
***************************************************
"G.L, Pvt, Co K, 19th Inf."
I do not have a G. L. MARTIN as having served in Co. K, 19th Alabama Inf.
I do show the following:
166. Martin, G., Co. C, 19 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
178. Martin, George W., Co. C, 19 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
186. Martin, G. L., Co. C, 19 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
Do you think your G. L. is perhaps my #186?
****************************************************
" J., Sgt, Co E, 5th Inf."
I don't readily identify this MARTIN.
I have the following possibilities maybe:
286. Martin, James Perry, (New) Co. B, 5 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
390. Martin, John F., Co. B, 5 Batt’n. Ala. Vol., Corp./Sgt.
OFU: Martin, John T.
411. Martin, John Mason, (old) Co. H&F&S, 5 Ala. Inf., Corp./Sgt. Major
[This is a peculiar company for sure! Don't believe
there is any such thing as company "S", so probably
transcription error on my part. mml]
422. Martin, John T., Co. B, 5 Battalion Ala.Vols., Corp./Sgt.
I don't feel I've identified your guy.
*****************************************************
"J.A., Pvt, Co H, 20th Inf."
I show
374. Martin, John A., Co. IH [sic], 20 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
*****************************************************
" J.C., Pvt, Co K, 29th Inf."
I show
305. Martin, J. C., Co. HK, 29 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
*****************************************************
" Jim B., Capt, Co B, 22d Inf."
This is Capt. Martin referenced by Kitty Garber and also by Alan Pitts.
331. Martin, Jim B., Co. FB [sic], 22 Ala. Inf. Lt./Capt.
******************************************************
"J.L., 1st Lt, Co K, 17th Inf."
I show
273. Martin, James L., Co. K. 17 Ala. Inf., Sergeant/Lt.
******************************************************
"John A., Pvt, Co H, 20th Inf."
I have already identified my John A. MARTIN(#374) as your J. A. MARTIN and
have no other likely listings. Do you think your J. A.(above) and your John A.(here)
are two distinct men or one and the same?
*******************************************************
"John, Pvt, Co G, 17th Inf."
I have
363. Martin, John, Co. G, 17 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
*******************************************************
"John S., Pvt, Co B, 20th Inf."
I show
417. Martin, John S., Co. B, 20 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
*******************************************************
"J.W., 5th Sgt, Co C, 9th Cav."
I show
459. Martin, J. W., Co. B, C, 9 (Malone’s)Ala. Cav., Sgt./Sgt.
Was company "B" later designed as "C" or vice versa?
*********************************************************
"Marcellus W., Pvt, Co K, 24th Inf."
I do not find a Marcellus W., but I do find:
497. Martin, Marcellus N., Co. K, 24 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
See also: 34 Ala. Inf. Ref. Card
498. Martin, Marcellus N., Co. K, 34 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
I suppose the "N" could have easily been a "W". I do think both of these are
for your guy, but I don't understand the two listings rather than one. Would
someone related to this man and desiring his CSR have to
order and pay for two records?
***********************************************************
"Nathaniel, Pvt, Co C, 22d Inf."
517. Martin, Nathaniel, Co. C, 22 Ala. Inf., _________
***********************************************************
"R.P., Pvt, Co C, 19th Inf."
577. Martin, R. P., Co. C, 19 Ala. Inf., Private/Private
*********************************************************
"Samuel, Pvt, Co C, 10th Confederate Cav.
W.W., Pvt, Co I, 8th Confederate Cav."
I do not have any listings for the 10th or the 8th Confederate Cavalry.
I will add these two men to the list of 700+ MARTINs.
Thanks much for your assistance in my project. Will try to finish your contributions today.
I welcome any comments, corrections, additions!
